About the programme

Begin your teaching career in Denmark with a Professional Bachelor’s Degree in Education as an international profile.

The International profile is designed to prepare you for teaching in Danish and International school settings. 

  • The first two years you are taught primarily in English, followed by the final two years in Danish. 
  • You will study three different teaching subjects, of which you will have English as your main teaching subject in the international profile. Furthermore you must choose two teaching subjects, and at least one of these will be taught in Danish at the end of your studies. 
  • Gain practical experience through internships in both Danish and international schools 
  • Study with a strong foundation in the Danish pedagogical principles 
  • As part of the programme, your studies will be enriched by the diversity of your fellow students from both Denmark and around the world
  • Study at Campus Vordingborg, a supportive and dynamic learning environment 

Along with the studies in English, you will have to learn Danish. At the end of the second year you must pass a Danish Language Test to continue the studies, as the two last years will be taught fully in Danish.
